"If trashpo has taught me anything its that every windblown street corner and cyclone fence is a veritable Dick Blick of free art materials."

Great, Martha. I go by members of the All Things Trashpo group. If folks live in a certain country or state, then they automatically have a chapter

That's not completely inclusive, as there are practicing Trashpoets & Kulters who aren't members of the group. Moan Lisa is one example. Moan would belong to DKULTIA (Dkult Iowa). I have seen more UK Trashpo than is represented in the current DKULTUK list.

I notice, too, there are clusters of trashpoets where there is no official chapter. For instance, I found a group of people in the USA state of Colorado.

Animals are members of some chapters. Snooky the Amazing Mail-Art dog is considered a member of DKULTWIS - Wisconsin.

Trying to determine members of individual chapters is a worthy task, IMHO.

I have started a register of Trashpoets in the UK , Thank you, DVS and DK, for the info. I know allmot all ot them.

Comment by De Villo Sloan on July 4, 2014 at 8:08pm

DKULT street art! Yes!

I am completely awed by this trash flag sent by Meeah Williams in Brooklyn just in time for the 4th. Meeah is a member of DKULTNY, which creates even greater pride for me. We clearly have a number of recent TrashPo Litzer nominations for KDJ. This feels like a great Trashpo Revival.

a very wise man to know a good thing when he sees it.  It was inevitable we would infiltrate the political world and the media. This spotted on a newspaper dispenser in Guam

Now here is the one bit in Martha's gift package that really belongs here:

Comment by Dan Mouer on July 4, 2014 at 6:33pm

Speaking of DKULTUK, I recently received a wonderful package of mailart treasure from pour dear reality-escapist friend, Mail Art Martha. It isn't Trashpo, so I haven't documented it here, but I know most of you will appreciate it. Check it out by going to this page and click onward to the following six images:

Martha: Smooch!

I've been completely blown away by the new British Invasion Trashpo. Then I picked up this piece by Erica Durante. She is a member of DKULTJER - New Jersey, USA. Great to receive work from that neck of the woods.

yup! I speak Marthian. There are two other DKULTUK members that I know of, possibly more:  Rebecca Guyver and Gina Ulgen

That's beautiful BG-the rain faded it in just the perfect whispy way
